This amigurumi pattern took me a lot of time. I wanted to make a crocheted horse that would match Barbie’s proportions but then I realized that it would have to be really big! So that final version is actually more a pony that a horse. But you can always use thicker yarn and bigger hook to make a “real” horse for your doll.

This amigurumi horse can be done almost seamlessly. Only ears and the mane need to be sewed to the body. The pattern itself is a challenge even for experienced crafters (actually, it is challenging even for me) – you really need to focus if you want it to be pretty and symmetrical!

The doll on pictures is Momoko – she is slightly shorter than a regular Barbie.

I knew two things when I started designing this one: it must be seamless and it must stand on its own four feet. Period. No compromises. It took me some time to figure out the way I should contruct it but at last – it is done! My newest seamless creature, Andy The Fawn.

I love how elegant he is. The color is added as-you-go, simply by changing the thread color. And you need the needle only to close the holes in the body.
